IT’S TIME for the Karen Burniston Products – KB Riley LLC November 2025 Release Blog Hop. (See GIVEAWAY details at the end of this post for blog hop list.) The Design Team have come together with Karen today for a fun blog hop to celebrate the release of 15 new dies and 5 new stamp sets. Sneak peeks of the new release started last week, and the dies are available to pre-order NOW!

Today’s card uses the new dies of Greeting Labels, Mini Ball Access Tabs, Surprise Ball Access Tabs and Animal Add-Ons 6 and a new stamp set – Bug Greetings. The card also uses previously released die sets of Mini Ball Pop-Up, Hexagons – Crosshatch and Ovals -Crosshatch.

Watch the process video to see how I made this card.

Cardbase: Cut eight dotted lavender cardstock hexagons using the largest die in the Hexagons – Crosshatch. Using the next two plain edged hexagon dies in the set, cut a total of 12 of the medium hexagon from patterned paper and six of the smaller die also from patterned paper. Cut two sets of the Surprise Ball Access Tabs from the dotted lavender cardstock. Assemble card as show in video.

Bee Pop-Up: Cut two ball halves and 12 decorative pieces from yellow cardstock using the Mini Ball Pop-Up set. Also cut one set of Mini Ball Access Tabs from yellow cardstock. Assemble Mini Ball as shown in the video above using the access tabs. Create the bee using the Animal Add-Ons 6 set. Cut four sets of the antenna, one large circle and two small eye ovals from black cardstock. Cut two of the smaller circle from white cardstock and the mouth from pink. (I cut the mouth from white and colored with a pink marker.) Cut one set of wings and two wing vein overlays from clear vellum. Assemble as shown in video above. Cut one lavender oval for the base for the bee to set on using the medium die in the Ovals -Crosshatch set.

Sentiments: All the sentiments are stamped on white cardstock using the Bug Greetings stamp set and the Greeting Labels die set was used to cut the belly band label out. The large label on the back used the largest crosshatch die in the Hexagons – Crosshatch set.

Monster Pop-Up Card

It’s Sneak Peek Week for Karen Burniston’s November 2025 Release of new dies and stamps.

Today’s card uses the new dies of Playful Pop-Up, Monster Playful Add-Ons, Dog and Cat Playful Add-Ons, Greeting Labels and Rawr! As well as Ovals – Crosshatch and Rectangles and Labels – Crosshatch. The dies and stamps will be available for pre-order starting November 24, 2025.

Watch the process video to see how I made this card.

Cardbase: I used a 12×12-inch sheet of yellow cardstock folded in half and used the largest plain rectangle die from the Rectangles and Labels – Crosshatch set placed with one corner over the fold to get a diagonal opening card base. Assemble card as show in video.

Monster Pop-Up: Using the Playful Pop-Up set, cut one of the largest die, the decorative notched square and the β€œY” piece die from blue cardstock. From the Monster Playful Add-Ons die set, cut the large eye and tooth from white. Cut the arms from blue. Cut the eye center and mouth with tongue from black. Cut the horns from green and stencil on the stripes. Follow the video above and photos to assemble.

Monster Body: The body is an oval from the Ovals – Crosshatch die set. The leg is the β€œY” piece die from the Playful Pop-Up set cut down. Eye highlights, finger nails and toe nails along with buttons were added with a white gel pen.

Bow: From the Dog and Cat Playful Add-Ons die set, cut from yellow cardstock – the largest eyeball, the largest cat ears and the paw arms. Trim off the paw end of the arms to make a fish tail ribbon ends and assemble as shown above.

Sentiments: Rawr! Is die cut into the green panel before being glued onto the yellow cardbase. The blue shadow was cut with the word die taped inside the shadow die and the tiny pieces from the centers of the R’s and A glued in place onto the yellow. Inside the sentiments were stamped using the Monster Sayings set and cut out using the Greeting Labels die set. A white label cut from the same labels set is for a personal message. The card back has an eyeball and “I only have eye for you.”

Envelope: The card fits into an A6 (6 1/2×4 3/4-inches) size envelope.

Wild Puppy

It’s Sneak Peek Week for Karen Burniston’s November 2025 Release of new dies and stamps.

Today’s cards use the new dies of Playful Pop-Up, Dog and Cat Playful Add-Ons, Greeting Labels, Dog Borders and Woof! as well as Go Wild!, Rectangles – Crosshatch and Waterfall Card. A new stamp set, Dog Sayings, was also used. The dies and stamps will be available for pre-order starting November 24, 2025.

Watch the process video to see how I made this kind of interactive card.

(NOTE: Below are the specifics for the A2 right pull teal colored card.)

Cardbase: I used a purchased kraft side-fold A2 cardbase. Using the largest of the Rectangles – Crosshatch dies, cut two from patterned paper. Adhere the rectangles to the front of the card and to the inside right panel. (Cut a piece of pattern paper 4.5×5.75-inches and save to cover the back panel once the staples have been added to the card assembly.)

Dog Pop-Up: Using the Playful Pop-Up set, cut one of the largest die and the β€œY” piece die from a dark brown cardstock. Cut the decorative notched square die from light brown cardstock. Follow the video above to assemble but do so in reverse for a right pull strip. Cut one rectangle .75×1-inch from the patterned paper. Cut one piece of clear thick plastic packaging .75×2.5-inches and another strip of lighter weight acetate .5×3-inches. Cut a cover strip also .5×3-inches from the same pattern paper as the inside panel. (The .5×3-inch pieces are the guide strip.) Once the guide strip over the pull piece has been installed and stapled in place, glue the 4.5×5.75-inch piece of pattern paper over the card back to hid the staples.

From the Dog and Cat Playful Add-Ons die set, cut from a light brown cardstock the paw arms and the dog ears. From dark brown cardstock, cut two of the paw backing die. From black, cut one nose-mouth piece and one set of the small eyeballs. From white, cut one set of large eyeballs. From pink cut one tongue. Watch the video above for how to assemble.

Bow: From the Dog and Cat Playful Add-Ons die set, cut from red cardstock – the largest eyeball, the largest cat ears and the paw arms. Trim off the paw end of the arms to make a fish tail ribbon ends and assemble as shown above.

Sentiments: The card sentiments β€œGo Wild!β€œ and β€œWoof!” are die cut. β€œWoof! Is used twice inside the card and once on the card back. Inside there is a stamped sentiment of “Your dog thinks you’re cool (and I do too!)” was stamped in black and cut out using the largest oval from the Greeting Labels die set.

Envelope: The card fits into an A2 (4.25x 5.5-inches) size envelope.

Autumn Pop-Up Card with Animals

It’s time for the Karen Burniston Design Team November 2025 Challenge whose theme is FUN FACES. I made a slimline Thanksgiving card using two new stamp sets – Fall Phrases and Fun Faces 1.

Watch the process video to see how I made this card.

Cardbase: I cut a 7 1/2×8 5/8-inch rectangle from white 65lb. cardstock. Then I scored and folded in half to create a 3 3/4×8 5/8-inch slimline cardbase.

Animals: Using the Woodland Animals and Winter Animals die sets make two bears, one raccoon, one fox and one squirrel. Use the Fun Faces 1 to stamp on the animals eyes, noses and mouths. Make four red apples from the Tiny Fruit set and add to all the animals except the squirrel. Make an acorn for the squirrel using the tiny acorn die in the Woodland Animals set.

Leaf and Acorn Border: Cut eight oak leaves from the Tree Pop-Up set and seven acorns using the tiny acorn die in the Woodland Animals set. (I cut a bunch of leaves from orange and brown cardstock and four more acorns knowing I would use the leftovers to decorate the inside of the card.) adhere to front border strip as shown in the photos and video.

Pumpkins: Cut three pumpkins from orange patterned paper. Dry emboss them using the pumpkin die from the Autumn Elements set in your die cutting machine’s embossing sandwich. Cut two of the pierced labels for the Little Labels Pop-Up side labels from green patterned paper. Layer together a pumpkin onto the green label and decorate with leftover leaves and acorns. Adhere the remaining pumpkin to the card back.

Label Pop-Up: Cut one of the large die in the Little Labels Pop-Up set from green cardstock. (Watch the assembly video located at the bottom of the linked page.) Assemble as show in the video above.

Sentiments: The inside stamped sentiments are from the Fall Phrases set. The die cut β€œHappy Thanksgiving” is cut from orange pattern paper using the Word Set 7 – Autumn set. From white cardstock, cut two medium sized labels from the Labels – Crosshatch, the center label and three banners from the Little Labels Pop-Up set to stamp. Adhere the largest two labels as places to write a personal message.

Envelope:  The card fits into a #10 business size envelope whose back flap was stamped in brown ink β€œThankful Grateful Blessed” from the Fall Phrases stamp set.

Haunted Woods Pop-Up Halloween Card

It’s the Karen Burniston design team challenge for October 2025 using the theme of PEEK-A-BOO!” – What is hiding in your card? I chose to make a Halloween card with a haunted woods using the Arch Pop-Up, Tree Pop-Up, Halloween Elements, Slim Pattern Plate – Spiders and Ovals- Crosshatch die sets and the new Halloween Phrases stamp set.

Watch the process video to see how I made this card.

Cardbase: Start with a white, purchased A2 (4.25Γ—5.5-inch) cardbase. Covered the four panels with decorative papers.

Arch Pop-Up: Watch the assembly video (located at the bottom of the linked die set page) for the Arch Pop-Up. For details on how I decorated the arch with nine trees cut from the Tree Pop-Up die set, watch the video above. (Four of the trees are glued onto the arch side pop-ups and the remaining five are cut up for their branches which are glued onto the arch and the back pop-out strip. Orange leaves were cut also from the Tree Pop-Up set.)

Decorations: Three ghosts were cut from pearlescent vellum using the Halloween Elements dies. The dangling spider is made up of two spiders cut using the Slim Pattern Plate – Spiders. (You can use the spider from the Halloween Scene set as well.) Sandwich a piece of white thread between the two spider die cuts and tie onto back pop-out strip behind the arch.

Sentiments: Pearlescent vellum was using again to cut the “Boo!” (Halloween Elements) and the larger oval for a personal message (Ovals-Crosshatch). Graphic 45 Midnight Tales papers and ephemera are used for their sentiments on the card front and back. The “Happy Haunting” sentiment is from the newly released Halloween Phrases stamp set.

Envelope: The card fits into an A2 (4.25x 5.5-inches) size envelope with its back flap decorated with more of the Graphic 45 papers.

Tipsy Teacups Birthday Card

This card was made for CRAFT ROULETTE #284 whose parameters included a Funn fold card, birthday party colors, Maggie Smith element, and spiral (s) (ing). Today’s card uses The Greetery dies and stamps.

Watch the video below to see how this card was made.

Cardbase:  I started with a 4.25×11-inch rectangle of 100lb white cardstock that was scored and folded at 5.5-inches and 9-inches to form an A2 (4.25×5.5-inch) easel card.

Tipsy Teacups:Β  Watch the video above to see how the cups were created with stencils using pink ink and a gold marker. The tipsy mechanism is a strip with tracks cut into it for penny slider mechanism. I used Pear Blossom Press’s new Snap N’ Slide penny slider plastic pieces which are like snaps that you can use a glue dot to adhere to the back of the teacups.

Sentiments:  “Sip, Sip HOORAY! It’s your birthday” and Hopping your day is steeped in happiness” are both in the Brew-Tea-Ful Day stamp set. They are stamped onto striped, textured, thin cardstock cut with the larges and smallest of the A2 Stitched Scallops die set.

Envelope:  The back flap is stamped with “Life is Brew-TEA-ful” in brown ink.
